Network Security Policy

The Network Security Policy interface is the nerve center of Comodo Firewall and allows advanced users to configure and deploy traffic filtering rules and policies on an application specific and global basis.

Both application rules and global rules are consulted when the firewall is determining whether or not to allow or block a connection attempt.

For Outgoing connection attempts, the application rules are consulted first and then the global rules.

For Incoming connection attempts, the global rules are consulted first and then application specific rules.

The Network Security Policy interface also allows users to define the Network Zones for specifying access privileges on them and Port Sets, which are predefined groupings of one or more ports of the system that can be deployed across multiple traffic filtering rules.
